A hydrogen atom is in the state [tex]\psi=Ar^2e^{-r/a}cos(\theta)[/tex].
I need to find lowest energy state and etc. Obviously normalize to find A, but I'm not seeing the obvious linear combination of wave functions; and I really don't think my instructor wants me to do several inner products (plus actually calculate the several different wave functions) just to find the coefficients. Am I over looking something obvious?
